The transformed humans drop from the ceiling and pop out from unexpected spaces. The monsters are a dash of Alien's Facehuggers, sprinkled in with what you might expect from a gruesome zombie movie. Necromorphs are revolting, as we see in the opening's frantic escape. Poor Clarke has been asleep for so long, and this is what he wakes up to.

Then in a flash, the man is stabbed in the skull by a Necromorph. In just its first minute, hero Isaac Clarke awakens in a straitjacket in an insane asylum, where he learns from the star of the spin-off Dead Space Ignition that the monsters of the series-Necromorphs-are at it again.
